Massachusetts Honeycrisp

Fruit scab - D. Rosenberger

Submitted by David Rosenberger, Cornell's Hudson Valley Lab, January, 2009. Rosenberger says "We don't see scab on Honeycrisp fruit very often. The large size of this lesion suggests that the infection occurred very early in the season, probably between tight cluster and petal fall. I'm curious to know if you have any photos of scab on Honeycrisp or if anyone has seen smaller lesions on fruit. Smaller lesions might indicate that infections occurred after petal fall, but I can't recall ever seeing any fruit with typical secondary scab lesions on fruit."
